POTENTIAL
A Journey in Morality
Kenneth Latimer
About POTENTIAL
POTENTIAL
is a story based on the premise that generally Blacks are
predispose to enslave themselves and America suffers from the
racism that accompanies this behavior. The author indirectly suggests perhaps just as the
gangster rap music of the 1990’s may have blurred the line
between reality and art, so too does the comedy high jinks
projection made by many of the Black performers of today call
into question whether or not art is imitating life or vice
versa. After reading this book, one may also question whether
the overpopulated, highly Black inhabited thriving city of
Atlanta is of an accidental phenomenon, and if phenomenal growth
of the immensely wide open city of Las Vegas is coincidental. The author sheds light on how although he may have
experienced personal growth, it is suspect as to whether or not
those around him even knew what had hit them. How this apparent obliviousness in the people of this
region to the transformation taking place around this area
apparently turned this once economically vibrant community into
a financially strapped and depressed domain. The story is showcased in such a way so as to be an
educational vehicle for presenting a counter balance for much of
the glitzy mind candy so prevalent today solely for
entertainment value. Although there is a great deal of mention made of
entertainment elements, it is not done to attack the
entertainment industry, but to instead include it in a positive
big-picture.

complex and evolving society of the late 1990’s.
